Once allowed to decant for 1-hour+ this Pinot turned out to be very aromatic.  Full of dried herbs, plum, and hints of clove & vanilla. The palate is much more fruit forward with flavors of plum sauce, cranberry, while also having earthy undertones. An excellent value and paired quite well with asian marinated chicken thighs! ($9)  [1/15/21]

Pungent nose but damn the palate is as sweet a Daisy Duke in a pair of cut off jean shorts.

One of the best wines I ever had. So light and tasty, and there’s no strong aftertaste!

I’d drink it if it was in front of me, but I wouldn’t buy it by choice

Liked. Medium-to-light body. Fruity character but not sweet.
